Holy Crap!

That barrel is ridiculous!!  and Chip, he makes his own fins!!

 

 

yep

hopefully not after having “four desert cigarettes” first though eh ?!

Awesome , you can see how deep he must of taken off when hes in the barrel and the rest of the lineup crew is ducking through the wave!

 

Awww c’mon, there’s longer tubes in the sausage factory ya meat packers.

Just tell me where that wave is before ya forget… fillabong pro - pfft.

Really though, that’s one stoked camel! What a wave.

 

yeah , it's only a short one , eh dave ?

 

...just a  mere 38 seconds [and they filmed maybe 40 % of the ride haha i guess they were maybe finishing off the fourth desert cigarette at the time , and hit the record button ...er... a little S-L-O-W-L-Y  perhaps ?  I remember that dope will do that to ya ]

 

 so , anyways .... how's the japanese 'susejs' going ?  [they must be L-O-N-G-E-R  than j-bay , by the sound of it ?? ]

 

  happy packing [i guess meat packing is one up the scale from fudge [packing] at least , eh  mate !]

 

  cheers

  cheers marshy

 

  dawno this morning .

 

  with marty .

 

  always feel a 'bit' better with two of us in the water.

 

  he is more meaty than me , the whiteys would choke on all my bones .

 

it's now thirteen months ago since my head-on encounter with a bronzey ...again , there were whales and baby dolphins around that day , and that also was a midday thing ...

whhaat?! Heavy!! Just read this article on the shark stuff       http://www.swellnet.com.au/news/2620-barry-bruce-on-the-recent-shark-deaths

 

[maybe i should post this on my previous "yiiiiikes shaaaark" thread from last september , instead ? , but ...]

 

september , october are when a majority of the attacks happen historically here

 

  september , october are when whales and baby dolphins and seals are around in large numbers .....

 

all the pointy heads who don't surf may need to come to the beaches over twenty or so years , and open their eyes and look ...

 

  meanwhile , if someone gets killed by a car , do we hunt down the driver ?

 

  should we cull drivers who kill people ?

 

  I fear for my life more daily , trying to cross west coast highway on my way to and from a surf ...

 

 cheers !
